MODERN RANCH
designed for
COPYRIGHT 1951 BY NATIONAL PLAN SERVICE, INC. PRINTED IN U.S.A.
L
THE RANCH HOME today enjoys a popularity that is,
perhaps, unparalleled in architectural history. The
advantages of the one story plan from a design and
convenience standpoint are many, and the benefits to be
obtained through the wealth of sunlight and ventilation this
architecture provides, have proved to be important
factors in its popular acceptance.
The typical ranch house features long, low, rambling
lines, generous use of glass and practical planning for
a maximum of efficiency and livability.
It is a pleasure to present these homes for your
consideration, with the knowledge that each of them has
been designed to give you the utmost in dollar value and
better living, whether in town or country. Many of them
are especially suitable for building on lots that are ordinarily
considered too small for a ranch type home. Others are,
obviously, more adaptable to areas where space limitations
present no problem.
We will be happy to discuss your home building
requirements with you and will consider it a privilege to
make suggestions that we feel qualified to offer through
years of experience in home building.

THE use of stone in combination with hori-
zontal frame siding lends charm and dignity
to the exterior of this home. The large living
room and dining area, typical ranch style, opens
onto a large porch at the rear that may be
screened or glazed for an outdoor summer living
room. The "L" shaped kitchen has a small snack
space.

THIS five room home actually has the
efficiency of six. Note the large snack
space facing the rear garden and the con-
venient all-purpose room which affords un-
limited use as a den, child's playroom, or
a guest room. When and if you decide to
add the large future porch indicated in the
plan, it will he accessihle through the
French door leading from this room. The
use of some brick at the front, together
with the wrought iron trellis, makes this a
most interesting exterior.

The hours that are spent in the kitchen are what
yon make them. That is why too much care cannot he
given to its arrangement and decoration ... to save
steps and he as pleasant, comfortahle and enjoyable as
it is possible to make it. Personal tastes should he your
guide when selecting colors, curtains and decorative
schemes. The kitchen is distinctively yours. It reflects
your own personality. Make it a room you are happy
to he in, and proud to show your guests.
There are many ways of planning kitchen arrangements,
hut some major principles should he followed to
save time and effort and allow greatest convenience —
r
(1) Include counter tops or working space beside
the sink, the range and the refrigerator.
(2) Place the sink so that it is convenient to the
range and refrigerator.
(3) Include a food-mixing center, beside the re-
frigerator preferably, or beside a range.
Store foods and equipment nearest the place where
they are used — within arm's reach whenever possible.
Be sure to provide adequate storage space for
needed equipment near the point of use. Cabinets in
modern kitchens actually provide more storage
space than the old-fashioned pantry.

stone chimney and flower hox accentuate the charm of the
picture window unit. Each bedroom has large wardrobe
closets and there is a convenient huilt-in vanity in the
bathroom.

THE snack space in the kitchen gives this home the efficiency of an
extra room. The illustration shows a four room home complete in
every respect and plans are available with or without basement, If, at
the time of construction, or at a later date, you wish to add the third
bedroom it can easily be done, making the home even more architec-
turally attractive. Three elevations are available for this same basic
floor plan, giving you a wide choice of design with the same efficiency
in layout. On the opposite page, one elevation shows an unusually
pleasing design achieved by using open trellis work and the other
through the introduction of stone at the front.

HPHIS small home has many outstanding
features. The large stone corner fire-
place in the living room and the ample pic-
ture window area overlooking the terrace
and stone flower hox will appeal to those
who wish to create an "outdoor living"
effect inside the house. The one car garage
is very interesting and helps accentuate the
width and spaciousness. It may be omitted,
however, if the lot size is not large enough
to accommodate it, without detracting from
the home's appearance. This plan will go
well on a corner, or it may he turned the
narrow way if your lot width is small.

r |\HE most interesting and pleasing exte-
■*■ rior of this five room one story home is
achieved through the blending of wide wood
shingles, siding and stone. The continuous
roof line accentuates the wide spreading ap-
pearance and provides a roof for the large
front porch as well as the garage. In addition
to the dining room there is a snack space in
the kitchen. The plan lends itself well to a
corner lot.

ALTHOUGH small, the compact-

style hip roof home affords the ef-
ficiency of five rooms. The French
door at the rear of the diiiing-living
area will provide access to an open,
screened or glazed porch which may
be built on at a later date. There is
plenty of closet space throughout.

HPHE exterior of this four room home is brick
veneer with stone introduced at the front and
rustic siding in the gables. Although very mod-
ern in every respect, the architecture reflects
English lines. Note the ample dining area ad-
jacent to the living room, and the accessibility
to all rooms from a central hall.

ACCURATE BLUEPRINTS
for
MODERN RANCH HOMES
A home must first be "constructed" on
paper with every detail clearly defined,
if the home builder would be assured of
complete understanding and agreement
among all concerned with the building of
his home.
In the interests of sound and better small
home construction, each design in this
book was engineered by architects and
technicians experienced in specialized
fields of home planning.
All blueprint working drawings include
the following: basement or foundation
plan, floor plans, front, rear, and side
elevations, complete framing plans, wall
sections and all necessary details.
REVERSED PLANS
Perhaps your home should face the
opposite direction. Obviously, a plan
designed for a lot facing east will not result
in the best exposure when your lot fronts
to the west. Plans of homes as illustrated
in this book are available either as shown
or reversed, as may be required.
